What Was The Biggest Deal in 2009? Call For Submissions

So, the end of the year is upon us, which means it is time for publications far and wide to create meaningless lists of the most important/silly/dumb/whatever events of the year. Because not all contributors to lg15today are bots with impeccable memories, we open the floor to you. What do you think are the biggest stories in the land of EQAL in 2009 (perhaps we'll do a 2nd list for webseries generally as well). Off the top of my head lots has happened despite the lack of any new original content directly from EQAL in 2009, including:

* Harper's Globe
* EQAL's decision to move away from creating original content
* Level 26
* EQAL's Polish series n1ckola
* The second TSIY contest, and Mason's win
* Mason remixes
* 2nd BreeFM Prom
* Resurrection of the old lonelygirl15 forum
* The first TSIY contest for EQAL, and the misunderstanding.
* The recent Meep Up/Party In the Breeniverse
* LG15: The Last
* Paula Deen
* Alicia Silverstone site
* The return of Maddison Atkins
* Jessica Rose appearing in webseries everywhere

So, whaddya think?

CHRISTMAS IN THE BREENIVERSE

BronzeGolem posted

Hum I can see the board is dieing down already, but before it does completely I'll announce our next community activity:

CHRISTMAS IN THE BREENIVERSE

The season to be jolly is upon us once more and on the board that means 2 things:

- Christmas Avatars. Bring out the santa hats and beards and decorate your avatar, I already did

- LG15 spoof Christmas songs. Adapt the lyrics of popular christmas songs to lg15 and if you have a good voice, sing it.
I'll also be uploading all the lyrics from last year that didn't get singed for anyone who wants to sing them.
Here are two songs from last year to get you all inspired

The Web.Files #24 - Coolmom.com

On the latest episode of the Web.Files Kristyn Burtt interviews Daphne Brogdon of Coolmom.com and Momversation.com two websites, which aim to put a new spin on online parenting sites. The two discuss the unique challenges of being a mommy blogger as well as the challenges of monetizing web content and establishing oneself in a niche market.

Daphne Brogdon is a veteran tv host, who has worked on numerous television shows including CNet's The Web and the Fox's Inside 24. In addition to her television work she is a standup comic, writer, and producer.

Web Series Brand Auction

Early today, Space Truffles announced that it had partnered with Brand in Entertainment to produce the first ever web series brand auction. What is a brand auction, you ask? Also, more importantly, where can I get some tasty space truffles? Well, according to BIE’s press release, the auction organizers “will invite professional representatives and advertising agencies to bid on exclusive packages to feature their services and products among a variety of media platforms.” In other words, advertisers will compete for the right to advertise in certain projects. Two of the web series involved in the auction are Pink the Series and After Judgment.

Founded by Gennefer Snowfield, Space Truffles is a specialty shop specializing in branded entertainment and web series promotion. On her website Gennefer wrote, “…what I’m most excited about is how our participation in this event will help further advance and legitimize the web TV category, demonstrating the high production and narrative quality against traditional, mainstream media also being auctioned. It will also serve as further testament that investing in web series is a viable tactic for advancing marketing objectives…” Figuring out a viable means of funding web series has been an on-going issue. Perhaps this will be a first step towards advertisers being more willing to invest in the medium.

Remix to the Future - Smashing



Back to the Future Remixed and Mashed Up with Beastie Boys, Timbaland, Diddy, Fergie, Justin Timberlake, Nelly, Britney Spears, and Dr. Dre. A Smashing Frames edit. http://SmashingFrames.com

Smashing was an early lonelygirl15 fan, starting from before the time of the "outing" of the Creators in the summer of '06, and active on the original lonelygirl15.com phorum and Anchor Cove. Though this vid is not related to lg15 (unless you want to make an extremely tenuous connection to EvilSarah's "Hey McFly, I'm evil" comment), this is the first video he has uploaded in quite a long time.

Janet Jackson Flash Mob - CarlyAJ


Carly Jones dancing in the Janet Jackson Flash Mob at the Grove in Los Angeles on November 14, 2009

Thanks

Thanks for everyone who helped bring the "World Wide Meep Party" and "Party in the Breeniverse" to life and made them smash hits. Out of a simple idea on the comments board these concepts grew through the spirit of collaboration and once again we demonstrated that with the help of the interwebz we do have the ability to control our own destiny as a community. So, whether you helped promote it on comments, made a video, tweeted, posted on facebook etc etc, or just showed up to enjoy a really awesome evening and meep, thank you all. A special thanks to all the cast and crew who showed up and helped make the event so special.

WE WILL NOT BE STOPPED

Lyrics:
I hopped on the net - 3 years ago

welcome to the land of crazy fun----meep!

refreshin til my F5 breaks
but when its says new video processing
and a new video comes up (x3)

CHORUS:
Type my life away
This is my place
My friends they are all here
laughing all night, oh yeah
meeping all day, oh yeah
my lonelycrackers are all here
and my sides are about the burst
meep - a party in the breeniverse
yeah - a party in the breeniverse

VERSE 2:
over time we drifted away
its a natural thing you know
its not a trick or the 436
the internets just go on

but its so hard with my friend not around me
we need another breenivese party
i miss talking 'bout plantcakes
and seeing jonas as my beefcake

my tummy's turning cuz i feeling kinda lonely
I need an orange slurpee
So let's meet up, let's all meep-up
